Web Development In 2020 - A Practical Guide Video Tutorials List

Web development is a minefield of tools and technologies and it is very difficult to know what you need to learn and why you need to learn it. The absolute best resource I have come across on this topic is the YouTube video Web Development In 2020 - A Practical Guide by Brad Traversy. Watching this video is an absolute must for anyone who wants to become a web developer. In fact before you start learning anything you should first watch this video to understand the big picture. It will act as an invaluable compass in your learning journey. Free Code Camp's blog post Web Development in 2020: What Coding Tools You Should Learn gives a good high-level summary of what is covered in the video should you wish to know more prior to investing your time in watching the video.

Brad mentions in the video that you do not need to learn everything here. He is essentially providing you with an option menu of what is possible to learn (and some things you really should learn - such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript) and why you should learn them depending on what your goals are. So really it is up to you to pick and choose what you want to learn.

I have created a list of links below to sections of the video along with the slides so you can delve further into certain specific topics that you are interested in learning more about. I have also compiled convenient links to the suggested YouTube tutorials highlighted in the video. You can also see the links I have added to relevant sections of Andrew Shearer's excellent Web Development 2020 Course List that comprises a list of the top Udemy courses for each slide as well as other resources. In fact this very repository is based on his excellent work so huge credit to him for putting all of that together. However, not everyone likes or can afford Udemy courses on all of these topics so I wanted to provide links to the YouTube videos and other resources so that people can either learn for free in a more bitesized manner.

OK no time to waste and time to start learning cos it's gonna take you years to learn even part of this stuff! 😊
